Bushwick, Brooklyn, New York

Remy laced his fingers together and flexed his hands outward to crack his knuckles. He might have to do more than his usual amount of typing and clicking, after all.

“So,” he began, “let’s see exactly who this mysterious Gilmore chick is. It ought to be a good test run for our kick-ass new computers.”

As of today, Riley was back on duty. He’d picked her up first thing in the morning, handed over the requisite honey to her excited colony-mates, and they’d spent much of the day on boring legal and financial paperwork or jockeying the schedules of Taylor’s nighttime clients. Volz and Bobby carried out their own duties in the main reception area. Now, at last, with daylight waning, he could move on to his personal responsibility in the investigation.

He started with the basics and simply plugged the agent’s name into a search engine along with “FBI.” A friend of his parents—a man named Hickenlooper—had contacts in law enforcement so he also sent a query to him. The man hadn’t, as far as he knew, joined the rest of the Remington family in refusing to speak to him.

Hickenlooper replied almost immediately but that was only because he’d never heard of a federal agent named Gilmore. He indicated, though, that he might be able to inquire about her and asked why it was that David wanted to know.

“Eh,” he hemmed, “it might be better to wait before I respond to that one. I don’t actually know that guy very well.”

Riley had left a few minutes ago to talk to Volz, but due to Bobby’s presence, he couldn’t actually reply much. The fairy drifted back, opened the door to Remy’s office magically, and left it ajar as she flew over to his shoulder.

“What are you doing, Remy?”

He waved a hand. “I’m trying to find some information. We have time before Taylor shows up and our shift ends, after all.” By now, his tiny partner already knew about the fight in Times Square and he’d briefly filled her in on the mention of the FBI lady.

The name search proved more productive, but only slightly so. When he poked around a little, it seemed that there were seven different agents named Gilmore or Gilmour, but he had no idea how to narrow them down to the one who’d sought him out.

Riley put her hands on her hips as she stared at the monitor. “They have phone numbers,” she pointed out. “You should call them all and ask which one is bad.”

Remy bit his tongue as his eyes rolled spontaneously upward. “Thanks, Riley. I appreciate the suggestion. However, in real, human life, these things usually aren’t quite that simple.”

“Aww.” She pouted. “Why not?”

He had no inclination to even attempt to answer that age-old question. Instead, he tried to look for any mention of the agents’ areas of operations or which field offices they were associated with. Any operating in New York would be the most obvious candidates. Of course, there was always
